10 Engine-pump assembly
11 Vortex impeller
The pumping station is equipped with several horizontal and vertical inlet
openings for 1 1/2’ or 4’ outside diameter piping (1) and 1 1/2’ outside
diameter piping (2). The engine-pump assembly (10) carries the pumped
uid in the vertical discharge piping with an inside diameter of 2’ or 4’.
The ventilation duct (4) allows the tank to always remain at atmospheric
pressure.
Operating mode:
Euent enters the pumping station through the horizontal and vertical inlet
openings (1) (2). They accumulate in a gas-tight, smell-proof and watertight
plastic tank (6). Controlled by a level sensor (5) and a control box, euents
are carried away by vortex impeller (11) and automatically pumped, when
they reach a certain level in the tank, by one or two pumps, depending on
the model, (10) above the back-ow level to ow into the discharge line.
- SANICUBIC® 1 VX contains one pump with a vortex action.
- SANICUBIC® 2 VX contains two independant pumps, each with a clearance
of 50 mm. Both pumps operate each in turn, alternately. In case of
abnormal operation, both engines run simultaneously (or if one vortex
pump fails, the other takes over)
.
Level sensor / Dip tube:
• 2 Long dip tubes
During normal operation, as soon as the euents reach the long tubes
actuation level in the tank, the pumping system switches on.
• Short dip tube
During abnormal operation, if the euents reach the highest level in the
tank (short tube), an audible and visual alarm system is activated and the
pumping system switches on (if it is not faulty).

INSTALLATION / FITTING
4.1 Installing the pumping station
The characteristics shown on the rating plate have been compared with
those on the order and installation (supply voltage, frequency).
The installation room must be protected against frost.
The installation room is adequately lit.
The work has been prepared in accordance with the dimensions shown in
the example installation.
The plant room where the SANICUBIC® VX will be installed must be large
enough to allow a minimum 24 inches in clearance around and above the
device to facilitate maintenance.
The alarm signal is always visible to the user (if necessary, use an external
alarm contact switch).
Isolating valves (not provided) must be tted on the euent inlet as well as
on the discharge line, as close as possible to the pumping station.
The discharge line must be designed to prevent any back-ow of sewage.
By tting a non-return loop, located above the back-ow level, back-ow is
avoided.
Comment: In the absence of local information to the contrary, the maximum
back ow level corresponds to street level - roadway, pavements etc. Extend
this line after the non-return loop through a larger diameter pipe.
The installation of an auxiliary pump for possible drainage of the plant room
(for oods) is recommended.
The pumping station must be ventilated above the roof.
The pumped uid is appropriate and authorized by this documentation.
(section 3.9, page 5)
In case of discharge of greasy euents, the use of a degreasing tank is
essential.
Wastewater other than those mentioned above, for example, of artisanal or
industrial origin, must not be discharged into the pipes without prior treat-
ment.
4.2 Electrical connection
Electrical connection work performed by an unqualied indivi-
dual. Risk of death by electric shock!
w The electrical connection must be performed by a qualied
and licensed electrician.
w The electrical installation must meet the current standards in
the country
Wrong supply voltage. Damage to the pumping station!
w The supply voltage must not dier by more than 6% of the
rated voltage specied on the rating plate.
The power supply must be class 1. The device must be connected to an
earthed junction box. The electrical power supply must be protected with a
high sensitivity circuit breaker set to 10 Milli Amps for SANICUBIC® 1 VX and
20 Milli Amps for SANICUBIC® 2 VX. This connection must be used exclusively
for the SANICUBIC® VX power supply. If the cord of this device is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-sales service in order to
avoid any danger to users.
4.3 Fitting the pumping station
Fit the pumping station on the bare ground and level it with a bubble level.
To avoid any risk of the pumping station oating, attach it to the ground
using the mounting kit provided.
NOTE
Fitting the pumping station on anti-vibration mounts ensures
sucient insulation against structure-borne sound with respect
to the pumping station. Do not t the pumping station in direct
contact with the walls to avoid transmission of the pumping
stations vibrations
4.4 Pipe connections
4.4.1 Inlet pipes
w The pumping station must not be used as a control point
for piping.
w Prop up the pipes upstream from the pumping station.
Make connections without constraints.
w Use suitable means to compensate for thermal expansion
of the piping.
NOTE
It is recommended that you mount check valves and isolating
valves on the inlet pipes. These must be mounted so that they do
not hinder disassembly of the pumping station.
The piping is supported.
1. Choose the connection openings to use.
2. Cut the tip of the corresponding inlet with a saw
3. Do not install a one-way valve such as mechanical vents
NOTE
All piping connections must prevent the propagation of noise
and be exible.
6
US/CAN
4.4.2 Discharge piping
Improper tting of the discharge pipe. Leaks and ooding of
the installation room!
w Run the discharge line above the back-ow level before
connecting to the sewer.
w The pumping station must not be used as a control point
for piping.
wDo not connect other drain pipes to the discharge pipe.
wFit isolation valves to inlets and discharge pipework.
NOTE
To prevent the risk of back-ow of water from the sewer,
install the discharge pipe in a «loop» so that its base, at
the highest point, is located above the back-ow level.
Fit a shuto valve behind the check valve.
The check valves are equipped with a lever for emptying
the discharge pipe into the tank.
4.4.3 Ventilation pipe
Insucient ventilation. Risk that the pumping station will
not work!
w Ventilation must remain free
w Do not block the vent outlet
w
Do not install one-way vent systems.
It must be equipped with a vent above the roof. The pumping station must
always be ventilated so that the tank is always at atmospheric pressure.
The ventilation must be completely free and air must ow in both
directions (no studor, mechanical or one-way vents).

6.1.1. Operation of the SANICUBIC® 1 VX control remote box (IP68)
1/ General alarms:
Level alarm:
If the water level inside the device is abnormally high, the alarm LED lights
up red + engine starts up. Furthermore, if this LED ashes red, it indicates a
detection problem for the normal water level (Long dip tube).
Time alarm:
If the motor runs continuously for more than 1 minute, the red alarm LED
lights up.
2/ Alarm reset: The button on the keypad will only allow you to turn o the
red LED (it will turn green) if the problem that triggered the alarm has been
resolved. It also allows you to stop the ringing of the remote alarm control.
Mains alarm:
- If the LED is o, there is no power supply.
- When the device is powered on again, the LED ashes green, indicating
that the mains voltage has temporarily disappeared.
6.1.2 Operation of the SANICUBIC® 2 VX
OPERATION OF THE ALARM
1/ General alarms:
Level alarm:
If the water level inside the device is abnormally high: the siren is triggered
+ the red alarm LED lights up + both motors start-up. If this LED ashes red,
it indicates a detection problem for the normal water level (Long dip tube).
Time alarm:
If one of the two motors runs for more than 1 minute: the siren is triggered
+ the red alarm LED lights up + the other engine starts-up.
Mains alarm:
In case of power failure (or when unplugging the device): the siren is trigge-
red + the red alarm LED lights up + the yellow mains LED blinks.
2/ General alarm reset:
If the problem that triggered one of the alarms above disappears, the siren
stops, but the red alarm LED remains lit as a reminder of the fact that the
system encountered a problem. Either of the two keypad keys will stop the
siren in all cases, but it will only turn o the red LED if the problem that
triggered the alarm has been resolved. Alarms from the remote box will also
remain active until the problem has been solved. This prevents the system
from being «abandoned» by default.
